Comes out October 20th

I previously had the trilogy on DVD and currently own the 25th Anniversary edition on BD. I don't know if I could triple dip on this. I love these movies, but there is only so much new content they could add.

I love the films but not sure if I'll quadruple dip (I still have my original VHS copies off all three plus the DVD set and the Blu-ray collectible set from the UK). If there's some good new features maybe I'll go for it at some point but I don't think I'll pick it up right away unless its cheap.

According to what I posted there is a new bonus disc with 2 hours of extras.

Yeah. It depends what kind of features they are though. If its mostly fluff stuff I'm not too interested. The previous sets had some decent making of features and behind the scenes stuff already so not sure what else can be added but we'll see.

^^^ That's the limited edition set. It's for pre-order at Amazon for $88.

The animated series was probably only produced in standard definition and that's probably what was only available. it aired in 1991 (pre-HD) and is probably 4:3.

That's the DVD edition, the Blu is currently $99.88 on Amazon.

And it'll drop in price I'm sure.

There's no benefit to putting the tv series on Blu-ray. Probably about the only reason to do so would be to put it on a couple of discs rather than four. I doubt they're going to remaster it in high definition. I'm definitely going to pick up Back to the Future: The Animated Series but will either wait or pass on the new set.

I had the set on DVD, and again on Blu-ray. I don't think I need to rebuy this yet again :p

Re: Back to the Future -- 30th Anniversary Trilogy
 
I just watched 2 and 3 on the current Blu-ray set. Looked and sounded great... The flux capacitor packaging is cool but not nearly enough for me to double dip.

JeffTheAlpaca 07-18-15 03:44 AM

Re: Back to the Future -- 30th Anniversary Trilogy
 
Does the new set have the similar type of cardboard slipcase packaging with no plastic anywhere except the disc trays?

milo bloom 07-18-15 08:54 AM

Re: Back to the Future -- 30th Anniversary Trilogy
 
I have never owned this set on any home media. I've always enjoyed the movies when they would come on TV and such, particularly the final sequence of Part 3, but I never pulled the trigger. Maybe if I find a great deal that big box set would be nice to have.

kstublen 07-18-15 09:39 AM

Re: Back to the Future -- 30th Anniversary Trilogy
 
I'm pre-ordering this on Blu-ray. I only ever watched these on television and never actually got around to purchasing them despite being one of my favorite film franchises. I wanted to get them on Blu-ray but hated the cardboard packaging. This release looks to have better packaging and I love that I can get the animated series and the trilogy as part of the same set.

Re: Back to the Future -- 30th Anniversary Trilogy
 
Geez, and I just bought the 25th trilogy last week. I'm happy with the discs, I just wish it came in a thicker plastic "swing" case, not the cardboard tri-fold.

Curious if the digital HD means a code for iTunes or something else.

banthafett 07-18-15 06:00 PM

Re: Back to the Future -- 30th Anniversary Trilogy
 
The first blu set is good enough for me. I'm only interested in the animated series.

I only have the DVD trilogy version. Remember that fiasco?

The framing issues with Part II, the good old days.

Class316 07-18-15 09:21 PM

Re: Back to the Future -- 30th Anniversary Trilogy
 
So are they the same transfer as the last blu ray set?

And yes I remember framing issues. Damn do I feel old

Guaranteed to be a doorbuster on BF. Will wait.

Re: Back to the Future -- 30th Anniversary Trilogy
 
Smells of a cashgrab. Probably won't be a re-encode, but just a repackaging. Definitely a pass for me. The current BDs look pretty good anyway.

Matthew Chmiel 07-19-15 01:20 PM

Re: Back to the Future -- 30th Anniversary Trilogy
 
I'm honestly just going to pick up the set because the packaging can't suck as much as the current set.

:thumbsup: The 25th anniversary packaging really does suck. I'm afraid I'm going to break the discs the times I've tried taking them out.

Plus it also includes the infamous digital copy coaster disc. which I hate.

I threw out the digital copies discs once I redeemed them due to that same, exact fear.

However, the packaging still sucks and its fucking huge despite no physical content for a set consisting of only three movies.

Re: Back to the Future -- 30th Anniversary Trilogy
 
It's for people who don't already have the previous set. If you want only the tv show that's available separately.

JeffTheAlpaca 07-19-15 05:02 PM

Re: Back to the Future -- 30th Anniversary Trilogy
 
The artwork sucks compared to the original set and another reason not to buy.

The Canadian edition of the 25th Anniversary set was reissued in a standard Blu-ray case (with tray) years ago. I long hoped the American version would follow suit -- since the pricing was often better over there -- but it's amazing how long they've kept that wretched packaging in circulation.

I actually really like those individual steelbooks. Like the fact that they have the original poster art on them although I'd prefer if the background color was black rather than silver. The 30th Anniversary steelbook isn't bad either.

Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, and Lea Thompson, reunited at London Film and Comic Con. They participated in a panel, answering fan’s questions about the film.

Re: Back to the Future -- 30th Anniversary Trilogy
 
Damn Lea Thompson is still really attractive. Fox you can definitely tell has aged due to his Parkinson's but he looks decent and Lloyd looks good for his age too.

Shooba 07-20-15 04:15 PM

Re: Back to the Future -- 30th Anniversary Trilogy
 
They should reunite and re-film the scenes from part two that were set in 2015.

That would be an awesome special feature or alternate cut of the film. Just for fun, not to pull a Lucas and displace the original.

Mike86 07-20-15 11:03 PM

Re: Back to the Future -- 30th Anniversary Trilogy
 
That 30th Anniversary panel interview was sort of sad to watch. You could tell Michael J Fox was having a really rough time. Christopher Lloyd was fine but I think he was having a hard time hearing the questions. Lea Thompson was good though.

I might get that Steelbook to replace the crappy packaging set from a few years ago. I can give that set to a family member along with a class on how to get the discs out.

Newly produced 92 minute feature length documentary called "Back in time" coming out October 21st. This is a separate release from the new 30th anniversary set.

Here's the trailer

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/soWkvfhAZAs" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>




The documentary film Back in Time is, at its heart, a look at the very real impact the Back to the Future movies have had on our culture. Funnily enough, the film’s genesis is a testament to how large that impact truly is. The project’s origins are humble: what started as an amusing addition to a Bar Mitzvah video, just happened to resonate and get stuck in director Jason Aron’s head. The Back to the Future trilogy had been a childhood inspiration which led to his career in film, and the idea of the De Lorean time machine wouldn’t leave his thoughts alone.

Those thoughts blossomed into idea for a film which would delve into the impact of the iconic machine. A plan was drawn up, and a Kickstarter campaign was launched. Over 600 backers helped the team supplement the feature’s budget, and for the past couple of years that money has gone to help Back in Time become something so much more than anyone involved ever imagined that it could be.

What was once a little idea that spawned a tightly-focused documentary has grown into something truly amazing over two years of filming. Instead of just a look at the eye-catching De Lorean, Back in Time is a cinematic monument to the vastness of the trilogy’s fandom. In addition to the footage and interviews revolving around the time machine itself, the crew found that simply by delving into the impact of the trilogy an epic journey began to unfold before them.

Shooting in London, England during a Back to the Future event, hundreds of attendees in 1950’s attire were captured for the documentary as they reveled in their shared love of the films; the crew got to set feet upon one of the prophesied hoverboards during a shoot at Hendo Hoverboards; and trips all across America took them from brightly-lit time machine-filled garages to the sun-kissed homes of some truly unforgettable faces.

The crew captured countless hours of footage during filming. From Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale, to the Sheas and Hollers, and from James Tolkan and Lea Thompson to Christopher Lloyd and Michael J. Fox, Back in Time features interview after interview that simply must be seen.

The scope of the impact of the Back to the Future trilogy is truly something to behold. Back in Time will premier in the fall of 2015 thanks in great part due to the support of a legion of fans. Digital and physical copies of the documentary will be made available after the premier, with precedence going to all those who backed the film’s Kickstarter campaigns.
